Memory sketch from the Masters of Horror segment based on The Screwfly Solution. Directed by Joe Dante
Hey guys. I don't know how many of you were aware of this, but John K withdrew his blog from public view a few days ago. But now it's back. It made me realize I need to check all his cartoon education and editorial before it maybe disappears again. So I added his link our link list with the suggestion you join me in drinking deep while all this info about cartooning how to, history and the biz is still easily accessed.
I don't know what the Screwfly Solution is, but I like it.

ReplyDeleteThe Screwfly Solution was the strategy of releasing sterile Screwflies into the wild and getting rid of species.
ReplyDeleteIt turns out Aliens have done something similar to us, turning men's sex-aggressiveness into pure aggressiveness to where they kill all the women.
This is the Alien design that is only shown at the very end. It glows and crazy men that see it report having seen Angels.
Very eerie. How did you achieve this effect?
ReplyDeleteDeane, short answer is photoshop. I just inverted the pencil drawing, put a blue layer in overlay mode over all, duplicated the bottom inverted layed and blurred it a bit and filtered it with something like plastic edges. No hand painting or anything. All pencil and then FX.
